I asked the question too soon. And thanks to @Jan Fabry for pointing me in the right direction. In case anyone else has this problem, here’s the answer. Any time the rewrite rules are changed (adding a new post type, changing the slug or the has_archive slug, etc.) you have to call flush_rewrite_rules once. It … Read more
There is no date-based archive for a category. The /category/[slug]/ pages are already “archives”, in that they display old posts over different pages. The different pages can be accessed by adding page/2/, page/3/, … to the URL. The template tags to add these links are next_posts_link() and previous_posts_link(). If you want to add a date-based … Read more
This function fixed the issue: function change_posttype() { if( is_archive() && !is_admin() ) { set_query_var( ‘post_type’, array( ‘post’, ‘portfolio’ ) ); } } add_action( ‘parse_query’, ‘change_posttype’ ); Then I just removed the paged and query_string function in my code and just left the regular loop 🙂
The WordPress Memory is something not easy to deal with. If the standard way is not helping (don’t rely on the WP_MEMORY_LIMIT constant, it’s conceptually broken, use ini_set in wp-config.php instead), then you can only throw hardware on it or hack the core. Please check if you’re using a recent PHP version on your system. … Read more
In regards to your decision not to use WP_Query, pre_get_posts is actually an excellent choice to make, rather than creating a new instance of WP_Query. In fact, pre_get_posts is exactly what you should be using when you want to change the main query. Rather than executing a separate query on each page load, it modifies … Read more
Another approach: edit your theme files. archive.php can simply not call in the sidebar, and that will do what you’re asking. Have a look at the Template Hierarchy for a view of what the individual files in a theme take care of.
Hm, I am not sure but I think that whole cache should be invalidated on publishing of new post… Had you tried to enable debug info in W3TC and check why are those pages aren’t refreshed? As for manual cache clear, from plugin’s FAQ: How can I flush the cache without using the WP Admin … Read more
One possible solution is to not change the category base and leave as-is, but instead modify any output of a category link to strip the category base via a filter. This of course will result in a 404 if you haven’t created a page in place of where these links point, so creating a page … Read more
It looks like you’re close on this one. Move this function: function is_user_online( $user_id ) { // get the online users list $logged_in_users = get_transient( ‘users_online’ ); // online, if (s)he is in the list and last activity was less than 15 minutes ago return isset( $logged_in_users[$user_id] ) && ( $logged_in_users[$user_id] > ( current_time( ‘timestamp’ … Read more
I know this is an old question but I was having the same issue in a theme I inherited and came across this question in my search for answers. In my particular case, I found the following PHP code included in the theme’s function.php file: if( is_category() || is_date() || is_author() ) { global $wp_query; … Read more
